Oxblood: a burgundy digital business card template.
Oxblood is a burgundy digital business card template: a deep oxide red that reads like bound leather, with a warm glow at the top left and your name in a pale rose-white serif. It is as formal as navy without being navy, and it is on Pro.

What it is made of.
Red-brown from #571526 at the top through #340c17 to almost black (#17050a), with a red light (rgba 198, 74, 74) in the top-left corner and a shadow in the lower right. The name is in Iowan Old Style, the serif Ivory Letterpress also uses, so the two read as the light and dark halves of a traditional pair. The ink is a warm off-white (rgb 247, 232, 226).

Who should wear Oxblood.
Lawyers, wine merchants, publishers, luxury real estate agents, private clubs, anyone whose printed card was on heavy stock. It stands out in a room full of navy and black without looking playful.
How it reads in a dim room.
The pale ink on deep red measures well above 7:1, and the field is dark enough to keep the screen calm in a dim restaurant or a lit-down drinks event. The QR plate sits on the same dark red, where it is the brightest thing on the screen.
14.5:1text contrast · 7:1 is the bar
Measured from the pass's own colors, by the WCAG contrast formula. 21:1 is black on white; the line marks 7:1, the bar for small text. This is a dark card.
